Wow. Huh, didn't follow the system's convention for marking local
additions. Sorry for the noise.
The script is below, it must have been a sample from somewhere.
#!/bin/bash -e
#
# You can use this by editing the fields below and copying this file to
# /etc/cron.weekly/slapd
#
# make sure the backups are secured
umask 077
BACKUP_DIR=/var/backups
test -f /etc/ldap/slapd.conf || exit 0
LDAP_DB_DIRS=$(grep ^directory /etc/ldap/slapd.conf | awk '{print $2}' | \
sed -e s,'"',,g)
test x${LDAP_DB_DIRS} != x || exit 0
echo "LDAP Directory backups..."
echo
for dir in ${LDAP_DB_DIRS}; do
test -f ${dir}/id2entry.[bd][db]b || continue
echo -n " $dir ... "
backname=${BACKUP_DIR}/$(echo $dir | sed -e s,/,_,g -e s,^_,,g)
if [ -f ${backname}.ldif ]; then
savelog ${backname}.ldif
fi
count=$(slapcat -n 1 | tee ${backname}.ldif | grep '^dn: ' | wc
-l | awk '{print $1}')
echo -n "done, "
echo "$count entries."
done
echo
echo "Backups complete."
